Yes, Charles and his wonderful IVC. From a bygone era when TV presentation was at a much slower pace, and the presenters were a familiar fixture on screen. And the Granada staff came over as very friendly. And not an easy job,was frequent breakdown of programmes and films back then needed calm words of assurance and thinking on feet. And when it happened on Charles' watch, he always played Jnr Walker and the all stars- Walk In The Night. Brilliant track and took me years to find out what is was called. Thank you Charles!
Early hours of Thursday 3 Dec 1981. What the Papers Say was I think only on Granada and Thames at this point, transferring to C4 the following year. Take The Stage also had an airing on early Channel 4.
Granada TV closedown, morning of 3rd December 1981 0438am 12.1.25 i dont recall the granada tv improv show... probably part and parcel of the Menshevik clique within the labour party. i think continuity links man used to live near my parents. hafl 12 when tv closed down... after which it was the small white dot which beeeeped continuously until the early hours when schools and colleges would hit our screens...

2:09 RIP Charles Foster.
Charles Foster - the consummate continuity announcer! I remember him doing the voice overs when Sue Robbie presented Connections.

All ITV stations were taking What the Papers Say. Grampian were the last to take it, starting in 1977.
Very nice
0:20 - “hilarious” used in its loosest possible definition, there!
No mention of independent local radio. Presumably Granada only started to do this later into the 80’s?
